These current public-data fields deserve follow-up with the facility and the official Medicare record. They are not a clinical risk score or a substitute for an in-person assessment.
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 64% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 24 findings, above the CA average of 15.4. We recommend asking the administrator directly: "How are you addressing recent staffing shortfalls?" These are not reasons to panic, but they are reasons to ask tough questions and visit in person.
Families considering Park Avenue Healthcare & Wellness Center will find a facility that has undergone significant recent improvements in cleanliness and staffing. While many recent reviewers praise the professional, warm, and attentive nursing staff, there are serious, recurring allegations regarding medication errors, delayed response to call lights, and instances of neglect in certain units.

Key Review Excerpts
“The facility is impressively clean and exudes warmth, creating a comforting atmosphere. The staff members are not only welcoming but also genuinely friendly, readily available to assist when questions arise.”
“My friend, George Mehaffey, wanted a banana or an orange. Outside the room, I heard her instruct someone to do just that. Minutes later, an Orange appeared. My friend was elated.”
“They didn't give my dad his medication for 3days. He's completely blind and they didn't find that out til almost a week later.”
RN hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmark. RNs handle complex medical needs and medication, so ask about coverage during your visit.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.

EveryPlace is a research directory. Facility information is compiled from public sources — Medicare.gov, state licensing portals, Google Places, and publicly available street-level imagery. Some summaries, interpretations, suggested questions, and pricing research are AI-generated or AI-assisted and may contain errors or omit important context. Listings do not constitute endorsement, recommendation, or advertisement, and we do not accept payment for placement. Families should verify all details directly with the facility and the original sources linked above before making any care decisions. See our Research Policy for our editorial standards, correction process, and image-removal policy.
